SON TO PREACH
The Rev. Melvin E. Beck of Chicago
Will Occupy Father's Pulpit
On Sunday Morning.
FRVMv N. SWEITZER
An announcement of much interest
to the people of North Canton and
its vicinity is that the Rev. Melvin
E. Beck of Chicago, son of the Rev.
E. ill. Beck, D.D., will occupy his
father's pulpit . in Zion Reformed
church on Sunday rnorning, July 29.
The Chicago pastor, like his father,
is a scholar, and having heard him
deliver several messages in the pulpit, The Sun heartily endorses him
as a speaker of much power and ability. He goes right to the , heart of
his subject, consequently he wastes
no words.
Personally he is a fine chap, ancl
we can readily understand his popularity in Chicago.
BECHER'S DON'TS
Mayor of North Canton Gives a Little
Friendly Advice To Summer
Travelers.
■ The Sun, as its readers know, regards it a civic duty to investigate
qualifications of candidates and give
. its, readers the results. Among important, nominations to be made Tuesday,. August 14, are those for a six-
year terni for Judge of the Court of
Appeals.
There is but one Republican con-
didate, and as a consequence Republican voters have no choice. Democratic voters can choose from four
candidates: William F. Garver of
Holmes, J. L. Mason of Ashland, and
Robert S. Shield's - and Frank N.
Sweitzer of Stark.
Aside from Judge Shields, the present incumbent, who is almost eighty-
three years of age, these candidates
are middle-aged men. In our opinion
Judge Shields should not assume another .six-year term. Were he elected
and find himself unable to complete
the term, his successor would be
chosen by the Governor at the time,
rather than by the voters.
Sweitzer Logical Candidate •
The remaining candidates have also
held public offices and have engaged
in the practice of law for some time,
affording a basis from which to judge
their work if elected. Considering
ability, accomplishments, experience, uui_ u^ v
natural and acquired adaptability to | if possi}j]e,

Mayor Logan W. Becher will start,
on Thursday with members of his
family and several friends for Michigan to spend two weeks. Asked by
this writer for The Sun if he had any
message for his fellow townsmen before he departed, he said:
"If it is agreeable to The Sun, I
would like to call attention to ■ my
strongest hobby,- 'Safety First.'- Keep
out of danger at all times, unless you
are engaged in dangerous work, and
even then it is wise, to use great precaution while at work.
"If you are going out of town make
sure that the water, gas ancl electricity are turned off and the windows
ancl doors securely fastened. Then
notify the North Canton police department, telephone 106, and a member
of the force will keep your house in
mind and look at it some time when
the neighborhood is asleep.
"Put a first aid kit in your pocket
and an extra one in your baggage,
and if you are going into the woods
or near streams a bottle of fluid guaranteed to kill flies and mosquitoes
will prove a true friend.
Examine Your Car
"As many people travel by auto
these days it is a wise policy to examine your car thoroughly. Better
yet, have one of the garages in North
Canton attend to the work. What
may look all right to the average car
may be a clanger spot, ancl a good
auto mechanic will 'spot' it at once.
"On the road don't imagine you are
on a race track ancl out for a new
speed record. Take things easy at a
fair rate of speed and watch the road
ahead. Don't try cutting in between
cars, and don't attempt to beat a train
over a crossing. The graveyards contain many persons who thought their
car was' faster than, a locomotive.
"Another thing worth remembering
is the signal light. Watch it and obey
it. Don't be afraid to ask questions,
but ask them from men id uniform

judicial duties and those things which
go to make a good Judge, in our
opinion, Frank N. Sweitzer has the
advantage. In our judgment the nomination of Mr. Sweitzer as the Democratic candidate will be for the best
interests of the people of the district.
AT THE° GRAND
Wright Players Offering New York
Successes In Canton.
The Wright Players in the Grand
Theatre, Canton, continue to offer to
the public each week a new play, all
of them, well presented, well acted,
, well directed, and with such appropriate settings- that when the audiences leave the theatre they are willing to say, "Each play seems better
than the last."
? This week's bill is "Why Men Leave
Home,", the last play written by the
talented Avery Hopwood. The-subject is neglected husbands, so well
written that it is a rollicking comedy
for both husband and wife.
Miss Tarry as Fifi starts .events
that follow each other in rapid succession, and of course Lex Lindsay
js the princi-pal in these occurrences.
, "Gertie" Next Week
Next week "Gertie" will . be the
play Gertie (Miss Tarry)' is a manicurist who longs for the luxuries of
life which she has never had and her
longing takes form when she buys an
ermine coat which is stolen when payments come due.
"Gertie" is a philosopher and her
sayings are clever and Miss Tarry's
portrayal of Gertie* is such that all
the comedy as well as the pathos "is
brought out by this adorable," versatile actress. i
The Play In'August I
The week following "Gertie," be-1
ginning in August, a change to a
.mystery play will be made and
"Spooks," a real thriller, the kind vou
enjoy, will be the feature.
AU of these plays are New York
successes, as Mr. Cannon will not offer to his audiences anything but the
best in the speaking drama.
France Assisting Hedger
M-: TS formerly of the Community Building, was in North Canton
by the papers that the
drowning season is in full swing. Too
bad, and yet many of these cases arc
due to rashness. No one should go in

it with your head you are done for all
time. Never rock a boat and don't

"Before starting on a journey put
a good road map in your pocket-and
cany some extra accident insurance.
The amount you pay is small, but it
means a lot to the average person if
he meets witii an accident," said the
Mayor.

Preaches Here Sunday
Senator Frank C. Wise of North
Canton, candidate oh the Republican
ticket for the position he has filled so
acceptably in Columbus, feels greatly
encouraged over the unsolicited support he is receiving from all parts of
this senatorial district, and his nomination on August 14 seems to be a
certainty.
As The Sun pointed out several
times . during the last two years,
Frank C. Wise has represented the
people as a whole, not merely a faction of them, and he has been instrumental in securing for the people
several laws of great benefit to them.
Naturally it stands to reason his
constituents deem it.unwise to change
to a new man this year, more especially so as he is working on a- plan
to relieve the farmers of some of the
.taxes on roads and other things they
cannot realize upon from agricultural
pursuits. Assessments are altogether
too high on the public highways, ancl
Senator Wise flatly and bluntly says j Governor's chair."
that it is an injustice to the farmers j °ne party or the other should be in
to ask them to pay their full share I absolute control and thus' give the
of enacting such laws which have but
one purpose—robbing''the public.
He has stood by the schools in season and out of season. .!
He has worked hard'to secure good
highways, and the Welfare Department of the state never had a warmer champion than Frank C. Wise.
Many poor unfortunates in state institutions for the mentally sick have
enjoyed a few additional comforts,
thanks to him.
He has treated the employer and
the emplo.ye with fairness, and each
side gets a 50-50 break from him.
Would! Change Election Law
He believes the election' laws should
be changed so that instead of a registration every four. years-we should
have permanent registration, thus
saving- thousands of dollars to the
taxpayers.
He believes a law should be enacted to give the people police protection on the public highways, and
thus eliminate holdups and other
forms of lawlessness.
Solved Court Clutter
When the Judges in Canton were
doing their level best to keep the
courts from being congested, and
finding it impossible to do so, Frank
C. Wise introduced and forced the
passage of a bill providing that
"There shall be one additional Judge
of the Common Pleas in and for Stark
county," known as "Divison of Domestic Relations."
' This court will take care of juvenile cases, divorces, and if necessary
function as does the Common Pleas
Court of which it-]]?;• practically a
part. ' ' :_
It is worth while for' readers of
The Sun to keep ih mind that while
others "thought something ought to.
be clone to speed up the courts" because they had become cluttered, it
was Wise that started the wheels going to relieve congestion.
Father of Municipal Court
When villages were facing the danger of lawsuits and all sorts of hard
talk was floating around because auto
drivers felt they were not getting a
square deal and Iiquorvtfiolators were
playing fast and loose, bri the advice
of their attorneys, Frank Wise had

in Canton, ancl everyone- is satisfied—
except a few personally interested 'financially in doing things the old way.

doubt. Frank C. Wise, has proven
himself a thoroughly capable,, honest
public servant, and the best ipterests
Of this district require ciiaf he be
nominated on Tuesday, .Aug. 14, at

when they secure but few benefits.
Opposed To Direct Levy
A direct tax levy always finds a
strong opponent in Senator Wise.
As him, "Why?" and he comes back
at you with the statement that
"There should be no direct levy
upon the common people. Is it
fair, is it justice,, to ask the people to pay the expenses of administering- the state government
when by taxing luxuries of various kinds there coulcl be raised
sufficient funds for the purpose?"
The direct tax levy was abolished
about six years ago. At the last session of the State Legislature there
was enacted a sixth-tenth mill levy
to be collected in June and December.
It will be off this December for good,
unless it is revived by the next legislature. This levy was created to pay
some'of the deficiencies made several
years, ago.
The Tax On Gasoline
One piece of legislation Senator
Wise is proud of is the one cent extra
a gallon tax on gasoline.
"That is a squarer, more equitable
way to create a fupd to build and
maintain highways than to have a
direct gas tax," he said at the time
he urged its passage and cast his vote
in the Senate for it. "The man who
uses tlie road every day ought to pay
more than the man who uses it once
a week or two or three times a week.
The cent-a-gallon extra tax treats
every one alike. Ij is a fair djstri-
people the opportunity to.: place the
blame or credit for legislation where
it rightfully belongs. '
HER RIBS BROKEN
Mrs. Ebersole Injured When Auto
Hits Tree On East Maple St.
To- penetrate the fog which seems
to envelop the contest for Judge of
the Court of Common Pleas (Division
of Domestic Relations) at the primaries on Tuesday, Aug. 14, The Sun
asked Attorney James A. Jeffers of
Canton for a frank statement, assuring him that this newspaper was independent in political matters and
that its one object is to present
clearly ancl tersely the situation as it
exists so that voters would understand it when they went to the polls.
Mr. Jeffers, who is a candidate for
the position, said:

are seeking-, provides that

Candidate For Judge Secured
Education By Hard Work.
Hia
Attorney James A. Jeffers, candidate for Judge of the Court of Common Pleas, Division of Domestic Relations, was born upon a farm in eastern Ohio, and that is no doubt the
reason he feels that tlie farmer is not
getting- his just clues, compared with
other industries.
Life on a farm in those days was
anything but an "easy effair," and
young Jeffers did his share of hard
labor. After doing, the chores in the
morning he hiked to the country
school, and in the evening he returned
to the chores. Then he went to the
village high school, and after he was
graduated he taught school for several years in order to secure funds
for a college education. When school
closed for the summer young Jeffers
went into the fields and worked.
He is proud of those clays, hard
though they were, and by the strictest economy he managed' to save
enough money to put him through
Mt. Union college near Alliance. Then
he attended Ohio State university and
was graduated from that 'famous
institution.
Admitted To the Bar
After his graduation aruTadmission
to the Bar he located in Canton and
began the practice of iaw and he has
been engaged there for nearly 30
years. He has never held public
office.

Relations,' does not change the fact
that it is still the Court of Common
Pleas, from which he resigned.

HAS' EXCELLENT RECORD
SON TO PREACH
The Rev. Melvin E. Beck of Chicago
Will Occupy Father's Pulpit
On Sunday Morning.
FRVMv N. SWEITZER
An announcement of much interest
to the people of North Canton and
its vicinity is that the Rev. Melvin
E. Beck of Chicago, son of the Rev.
E. ill. Beck, D.D., will occupy his
father's pulpit . in Zion Reformed
church on Sunday rnorning, July 29.
The Chicago pastor, like his father,
is a scholar, and having heard him
deliver several messages in the pulpit, The Sun heartily endorses him
as a speaker of much power and ability. He goes right to the , heart of
his subject, consequently he wastes
no words.
Personally he is a fine chap, ancl
we can readily understand his popularity in Chicago.
BECHER'S DON'TS
Mayor of North Canton Gives a Little
Friendly Advice To Summer
Travelers.
■ The Sun, as its readers know, regards it a civic duty to investigate
qualifications of candidates and give
. its, readers the results. Among important, nominations to be made Tuesday,. August 14, are those for a six-
year terni for Judge of the Court of
Appeals.
There is but one Republican con-
didate, and as a consequence Republican voters have no choice. Democratic voters can choose from four
candidates: William F. Garver of
Holmes, J. L. Mason of Ashland, and
Robert S. Shield's - and Frank N.
Sweitzer of Stark.
Aside from Judge Shields, the present incumbent, who is almost eighty-
three years of age, these candidates
are middle-aged men. In our opinion
Judge Shields should not assume another .six-year term. Were he elected
and find himself unable to complete
the term, his successor would be
chosen by the Governor at the time,
rather than by the voters.
Sweitzer Logical Candidate •
The remaining candidates have also
held public offices and have engaged
in the practice of law for some time,
affording a basis from which to judge
their work if elected. Considering
ability, accomplishments, experience, uui_ u^ v

What Judge Ake Should Know
"As a lawyer he knows that the
new law specifically provides that
'There shall be one additional Judge
of the Court of- Common Pleas in and
for Stark county.' A.s a lawyer he
also knows that you can call a spade
by a different name, but it still remains a spade.
"Tacking on the words, 'Domestic
Relations,' does not change the fact
that it is still the Court of Common
Pleas, from which he resigned.
"In the entire history of Stark
county no Common Pleas Judge has '
ever been elected for three terms. yNcxt Meeting In Community Building
